A bit of background on the Hahanna.  It is designed as a trailworthy first Mtn bike.  Or a Mtn style bike that is your every day transportation and recreation bike.  One bike to do it all and do it well.  The geometry is designed for commuting comfort as well as for riding trails. 

Out of the box the Hahanna's are very good looking bikes.  Component spec definitely has trail riding in mind. The Shimano drive train is meant to deliver performance whether on dirt or asphalt. 

The SR Suntour fork with 100mm of travel is sure to provide ample control when the terrain gets rough.  The fork has limited adjustments on it.  The only thing that can be adjusted is the fork preload.  Heavier riders will want more preload and lighter riders will want less.  Other than that it is a very basic muddle free fork.

The wheels - thank you KONA! - are double walled rims.  What does this mean?  Well it means that the wheels will be extra durable without any negligible weight penalty.  In the past a bike of this price would usually come with single walled rims and their lifetime is usually far less than that of double walled rims. As a matter of fact if you look at most other bikes in this price range you will find that they come with single walled rims. The rims on the Hahanna mean the wheels will be strong and reliable... I hope. We'll see.

The frame is a KONA and as reliable as they come.  Made from KONA's proprietary 7005 series butted aluminum tubes this frame is built to handle hard trail riding.  I have full confidence in this frame.

A couple of concerns I have are the stem and crank set and perhaps the weight of the bike.  At 33lbs, according to our scale which is rather accurate, it is a heavy ride - about 12lbs heavier than my regular Mtn bike.  The stem is short. 85mm short.  There is a reason for this.  This bike is intended for the recreational cyclist who is looking for a more upright comfortable position.  I on the other hand ride with a decidedly low and stretched out position and I use a 120mm stem.  I was hoping we could amend the rules to allow stem length changes but Chad the rule maker/enforcer put the kabosh on that one. So I am stuck with a dinky stem - unless I can break it. Hmmm...  My final concern is the crank set.  The chain rings on the cranks set to be more specific are a stamped style steel chainring rather than a machined or forged aluminum style that you see on more expensive bikes.  Everyone but me seems to have full confidence in the chainrings.  I have in the past bent cranks and chainrings even very nice ones and my prediction is that if I break anything it will be the chainrings or cranks. Again we'll see.

I will be out for my first ride in the next couple of days.  I will let you know how it goes.
